They have some good knives but this isn't one. Cheap feel on the handle and a strange locking system. Honestly it feels and looks like a knife you would win at a carnival.
I have a ton of good cold steel knives - this is not one of them. I wouldn't give this knife away; it's that bad.

Bought one last deal for under 5 bucks I believe. Does not lock open, only held under very strong tension. Blade length is huge, and sharp as any other cold steel which is excellent. Handle is a bit light, overall worth the price. Easy to slip into the pocket when I know I might need some extra length on a task. 2 hands to open tho
Own the version without the keychain... or whatever that is. Can confirm. Garbage. Worse, it is dangerous garbage. High chance you'd draw your own blood with it.
Now if you need something to cut fishing line and don't care about it rusting away in your tackle box... still... just maybe.
That said, I too have some really stout Cold Steel knives. They need to stick to making quality or they'll end up shooting their own brand in the foot.
You see Cold Steel, but this isn't a cold steel. I don't know why they bother putting their name on this. It is a knife, it is sharp, that's about it. It's very flimsy, and IMHO the lock design is downright dangerous. You have to pull that ring back then push on the blade with a lot of pressure in order to release the lock and I've nearly cut myself several times.

If you're thinking of carrying it, make sure you check local laws. Most places a folder with a blade over 3.5 inches can't be concealed.
